Amazon's 2nd generation eBook reader is not only beautiful but more usable than the first generation Kindle. It has a 6 inch e Ink display that looks like print on paper, wireless access to the Net and Amazon's Kindle bookstore, can read text aloud and play music in the background via stereo speakers or headphones. It holds over a thousand books and can play Audible books too. This review includes a video review with samples of the text-to-speech in action.
